“Our guide Cyril was the absolute BEST! This was one of the best tour experiences we have ever had. Very knowledgable and passionate about France, Nice and the surrounding area. The train ride scenery was stunning. The medieval villages were quaint and so well preserved. The lunch consisted of local cuisine and a beautiful local wine from the town Boucher, a family run business. Overall on scale of 10 Cyril made our experience a 15!”
